Luke 2
1 And it came to pass in those days that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be registered.
Pa taq ri qꞌij riꞌ, xya jun taqanik rumal ri César Augusto rech konojel ri winaq kakitzꞌibꞌaj kibꞌ.
2 (This registering was the first made while Quirinius was governor of Syria.)
(Are waꞌ ri nabꞌe ajilanik ri xbꞌanik che riꞌ are qꞌatal tzij ri Cirenio pa ri tinimit Siria.)
3 And all went to be registered, each to his own city.
Konojel xetzalij pa taq ri kitinimit, rech kakitzꞌibꞌaj kibꞌ pa ri ajilanik.
4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee out of the city of Nazareth into Judaea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David,
Ri José xel bꞌik pa ri leꞌaj Nazaret, xeꞌ pa Galilea pa ri tinimit Belén ri kꞌo pa ri tinimit Judea, najtir ukꞌolibꞌal ri David.
5 to be registered with Mary who had been betrothed to him, who was with child.
Xukꞌam bꞌik ri rixoqil María rech kuꞌtzꞌibꞌaj ribꞌ, yawabꞌ ixoq chik.
6 And it came to pass, while they were there, that the days for her delivery were completed.
Are kꞌo pa ri tinimit Belén, xopan ri qꞌij kalax ri neꞌ.
7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swathing-clothes, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
Xkꞌojiꞌ kꞌu ri nabꞌe ral ala ri María, xubꞌalqꞌotij kꞌut pa atzꞌyaq, xuqꞌoyobꞌa pa jun rechabꞌal awaj rumal cher man xkiriq ta chi jun kꞌolibꞌal jawjeꞌ kekanaj wi kanoq.
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, and keeping watch over their flock by night.
E kꞌo kꞌu aꞌjyuqꞌabꞌ cho taq ri saq che ri chaqꞌabꞌil riꞌ tajin keꞌkichajij ri kichij.
9 And an angel of the Lord came to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were in great fear.
Xaq kꞌa teꞌ xukꞌut ribꞌ chikiwach jun ángel taqom loq rumal ri Ajawxel Dios. Ri ujuluwem ri Dios xsutin chikij. Ri aꞌjyuqꞌabꞌ xkixiꞌj kibꞌ.
10 And the angel said to them, Fear not; for lo! I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to the whole people;
Ri ángel xubꞌij chike: Man kixiꞌj ta iwibꞌ, nukꞌamom loq utz laj tzij chiꞌwe, ri kuya na kiꞌkotemal chike konojel ri winaq.
11 for to you hath been born this day, in the city of David, a Saviour, who is the Christ, the Lord.
Kamik xalax pa ri utinimit ri David jun Kolonel, are ri Mesías ri Ajawxel.
12 And this shall be the sign to you: Ye shall find a babe wrapped in swathing-clothes, [[lying]] in a manger.
Ri retal chiꞌwe are chi: Kiriq na jun laj akꞌal, bꞌalqꞌotital pa atzꞌyaq, qꞌoyobꞌatal pa jun rechabꞌal awaj.
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
Xaq kꞌa te xepe sibꞌalaj e kꞌi angelibꞌ rukꞌ ri nabꞌe ángel, xkiqꞌijilaꞌj ri Dios, xkibꞌij:
14 “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men of good will!”
¡Juluwem che ri Dios ri kꞌo pa ri kaj, jaꞌmaril kukꞌ ri winaq ri kuꞌloqꞌaj ri Dios, ri e kꞌo cho ri uwachulew!
15 And it came to pass, when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, that the shepherds said one to another, Let us go at once to Bethlehem, and see that which hath come to pass, which the Lord hath made known to us.
Are xetzalij ri angelibꞌ pa ri kaj, ri aꞌjyuqꞌabꞌ xkibꞌij chibꞌil taq kibꞌ: Joꞌ pa Belén, jeꞌqila ri xutzijoj ri Ajawxel chaqe.
16 And they came with haste, and found Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger.
Aninaq xebꞌe pa ri leꞌaj, xeꞌkiriqa ri María, ri José xuqujeꞌ ri kꞌin laj akꞌal qꞌoyol pa ri rechabꞌal awaj.
17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad what had been told them concerning this child.
Are xiltaj kumal, ri aꞌjyuqꞌabꞌ xkitzijoj chike konojel ri winaq, ri xkilo xuqujeꞌ ri xubꞌij ri ángel chike.
18 And all who heard wondered at the things which were told them by the shepherds.
Konojel ri winaq ri xetow ronojel ri xkitzijoj ri aꞌjyuqꞌabꞌ xemayijanik.
19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
Are kꞌu ri María xuyak pa ranimaꞌ ronojel we jastaq riꞌ, amaqꞌel xuchomaj rij.
20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all which they had heard and seen, as had been told them.
Ri aꞌjyuqꞌabꞌ xetzalij chuchajixik ri kichij, xkiqꞌijilaꞌj ri Dios rumal ri xkilo xuqujeꞌ xkito. Je xkꞌulmatajik jetaq ri xutzijoj ri ángel chike.
21 And when eight days were completed for him to be circumcised, his name was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
Are xikꞌow wajxaqibꞌ qꞌij, xkoj retal ri neꞌ, Jesús xkoj che ubꞌiꞌ. Are waꞌ ri ubꞌiꞌ ri xbꞌix rumal ri ángel are majaꞌ kalaxik.
22 And when the days of their purification according to the law of Moses were completed, they brought him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord,
Xopan ri qꞌij ri katzuj ri sipanik rech chꞌajchꞌojil jetaq ri kutoqꞌij ri utaqanik ri Moisés, are kakꞌojiꞌ jun akꞌal, xaq jeriꞌ ri utat unan xkikꞌam bꞌik pa Jerusalén chutzujik cho ri Ajawxel.
23 as it is written in the law of the Lord: “Every first-born male shall be called holy to the Lord,”
Kubꞌij ri taqanik: We ala ri nabꞌyal ral ri ixoq, rajawaxik katzuj cho ri Dios e kebꞌ tukmux o jukꞌulaj palomax.
24 and to offer a sacrifice, according to what is directed in the law of the Lord: “A pair of turtle doves, or two young pigeons.”
Xaq jeriꞌ xkitzuj ri sipanik jetaq ri kubꞌij ri utaqanik ri Ajawxel, kebꞌ tukmux o jukꞌulaj palomax.
25 And lo! there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and he was a righteous and devout man, waiting for the consolation of Israel. And the Holy Spirit was upon him;
Pa taq ri qꞌij riꞌ, kꞌo jun achi ubꞌiꞌ Simeón pa ri tinimit Jerusalén, we achi riꞌ sukꞌ xuqujeꞌ utz ranimaꞌ rayeꞌm chi kulkubꞌisax ukꞌuꞌx ri tinimit Israel.
26 and it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit, that he should not see death before he had seen the Christ of the Lord.
Kꞌuttal kꞌu choch chi man kakam taj we man nabꞌe karil kan uwach ri Mesías rech ri Ajawxel.
27 And he came in the Spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the law,
Che ri qꞌij riꞌ, xkꞌam bꞌik rumal ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel, xeꞌ pa ri Templo rech ri Dios. Xaq jeriꞌ are xopan ri María rachiꞌl ri José chutzujik ri neꞌ Jesús, jetaq ri kubꞌij ri utaqanik ri Ajawxel.
28 he took him in his arms, and blessed God, and said,
Ri Simeón kꞌo chilaꞌ, xuqꞌaluj ri akꞌal, xuqujeꞌ xuqꞌijilaꞌj ri Dios, xubꞌij:
29 Lord! now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word;
Ajawxel, chanim ya bꞌa la bꞌe kakam we patanil e la pa jaꞌmaril jetaq ri bꞌim la loq.
30 for mine eyes have seen thy salvation,
Xinwil rukꞌ ri nubꞌoqꞌoch ri koltajem la.
31 which thou hast prepared before the face of all the peoples;
Ri xtaq la loq chike konojel ri winaq.
32 a light to enlighten the gentiles, and to be the glory of thy people Israel.
Areꞌ ketunan na ri winaq rech kakil ri Dios, areꞌ ujuluwem ri tinimit Israel.
33 And his father and his mother marveled at what was spoken concerning him.
Ri utat unan ri Jesús sibꞌalaj xemayijanik che ri kabꞌix che ri Jesús.
34 And Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary his mother, Behold, this child is appointed for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that will be spoken against; —
Ri Simeón xuꞌtewechiꞌj, xubꞌij che ri María, ri unan: E kꞌi winaq aꞌj Israel ketzaq na rumal re we akꞌal riꞌ, xuqujeꞌ kuya na kiꞌkotem chike nikꞌaj chik. Kux xuqujeꞌ na jun etal rech tijoj chuqꞌabꞌ.
35 yea, a sword will pierce through thine own soul, —that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.
Rumal rech, kaqꞌalajin na ri chomabꞌal rech ri kanimaꞌ ri winaq, chawe at ri at unan, ronojel we jastaq riꞌ je ri kok na jun chꞌichꞌ che ri awanimaꞌ.
36 And there was Anna, a prophetess, daughter of Phanuel: of the tribe of Asher; she was of great age, and had lived with a husband seven years from her virginity;
Kꞌo xuqujeꞌ jun qꞌalajisal utzij ri Dios, jun ixoq ubꞌiꞌ Ana ri kꞌo pa ri Templo rech ri Dios, umiꞌal ri Fanuel, rech ri jupuq winaq Aser. Wuqubꞌ junabꞌ e kꞌulanik xkam ri rachajil.
37 and she was a widow eighty-four years old, who never left the temple, worshipping with fastings and prayers night and day.
Junmuchꞌ kajibꞌ ujunabꞌ, man kel ta wi pa ri Templo. Chi paqꞌij chi chaqꞌabꞌ kuqꞌijilaꞌj ri Dios, kubꞌan chꞌawem xuqujeꞌ man kawaꞌtaj.
38 And she came up at this very time, and gave thanks to God, and spoke of him to all that were looking for the redemption of Jerusalem.
Ri ixoq xopanik are tajin katzijon ri Simeón rukꞌ ri María rachiꞌl ri José, xuchapleꞌj uqꞌijilaꞌxik ri Dios, xutzijoj rij ri akꞌal chike konojel ri kayeꞌm kakolotaj ri tinimit Jerusalén, rumal ri Dios.
39 And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.
Are xtzꞌaqat ubꞌanik ronojel ri kutoqꞌij ri utaqanik ri Ajawxel kumal ri utat unan ri Jesús, xetzalij cho kachoch je laꞌ pa Nazaret pa Galilea.
40 And the child grew, and waxed strong, being filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon him.
Chilaꞌ xkꞌiy wi ri akꞌal, utz uwach xuqujeꞌ xkꞌojiꞌ uchuqꞌabꞌ. Sibꞌalaj xkꞌiy retaꞌmabꞌal, ri utoqꞌobꞌ ri Dios kꞌo rukꞌ.
41 Now his parents used to go yearly to Jerusalem at the feast of the passover.
Ronojel junabꞌ ri utat unan ri Jesús xebꞌe pa ri tinimit Jerusalén, pa ri nimaqꞌij Pascua.
42 And when he was twelve years old, and they went up, after the custom of the feast,
Are kabꞌlajuj ujunabꞌ ri Jesús, xebꞌe pa Jerusalén jetaq ri naqꞌatal chike.
43 and had completed the days, on their returning, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and his parents did not know it,
Are xkꞌis ri nimaqꞌij, xkichapleꞌj tzalijem loq pa ri tinimit Nazaret, ri utat unan ri Jesús man xkinabꞌej taj chi xkanaj kan ri Jesús pa Jerusalén.
44 but, supposing him to be in the company, went a day's journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance;
Pa kikꞌuꞌx chi kꞌo chikixoꞌl ri nikꞌaj winaq chik. Are xuriq chaqꞌabꞌ, xkichapleꞌj utzukuxik chikixoꞌl ri e rech chꞌabꞌeꞌn xuqujeꞌ ri rachalal, man xkiriq ta kꞌut.
45 and not finding him, they returned to Jerusalem in search of him.
Are man xkiriq taj, xetzalij pa ri tinimit Jerusalén chutzukuxik.
46 And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions.
Oxibꞌ qꞌij chik ikꞌowinaq are xeꞌkiriqa ri Jesús kꞌo pa ri Templo, tꞌuyul chkixoꞌl ri aꞌjtijabꞌ rech ri taqanik, tajin kuꞌtatabꞌej xuqujeꞌ tajin kukꞌot kichiꞌ.
47 And all who heard him were astonished at his understanding and his answers.
Konojel ri tajin ketatabꞌenik xemayijan che ri retaꞌmabꞌal xuqujeꞌ ri tzalibꞌal wach ri xuya ri Jesús.
48 And when they saw him, they were amazed; and his mother said to him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have been seeking thee in much distress.
Are xkilo, xemayijanik ri unan xubꞌij che: Ala, ¿jas che je xabꞌan we riꞌ chaqe? In rachiꞌl ri atat tajin katqatzukuj pa ronojel kꞌolibꞌal.
49 And he said to them, Why is it that ye have been seeking me? Did ye not know that I must be about my Father's business?
Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: ¿Jas che kintzukuj alaq? ¿La man etaꞌm alaq chi pa rachoch ri nuTat rajawaxik kinkꞌojiꞌ wi?
50 And they understood not what he spoke to them.
Man xkichꞌobꞌ ta kꞌu ri utat unan jas che jewaꞌ xubꞌij.
51 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject to them. And his mother kept all these things in her heart.
Xtzalij kꞌu kukꞌ ri utat unan pa ri tinimit Nazaret xuqujeꞌ xniman chike. Ri unan xukꞌol pa ranimaꞌ ronojel ri jastaq ri xkꞌulmatajik.
52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
Xkꞌiy kꞌu ri Jesús, pa ri utoqꞌobꞌ ri Dios, xkꞌojiꞌ retaꞌmabꞌal, xuqujeꞌ xqaj ri unoꞌjibꞌal chikiwach konojel ri winaq.
